[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I find it concerning that you all celebrate Black women losing their jobs, but you don’t have this energy for white people (especially men) that are predators.[/quote]

The relevant fact here is how well someone did their job. Content of their character, not the color of their skin.[/quote]

This may sound a bit racial.

But before I worked at MCPS, I was at a really progessive workplace with a lot of great people of all ethnicities.  Went to a nondiverse place that I hated and didn't last too long there.

And was initially happy when I went to MCPS and saw all of the people of color in leadership positions and thought that MCPS must've been really progessive too.

Only to later determine that a lot of those people must've been tokens and were really unqualified for their jobs.  There were some good people (all races) but some really bad ones (all races too).  The environment there really was full of nepotism and cronyism long before Monifa but she was part of the environment.  [b]There were people being groomed for the superintendent position, who didn't last too long after getting it.[/b]

The issue with the way things are nowadays is that you can't criticize certain people without being accused of racism.  So they have a level of protection around them where they can't be touched.  And to be frank it gives them a level of entitlement too.  It's what happens when the pendulum swings too far one way or another.

But MCPS does really have a bad environment and I could spill the tea about a lot of the going ons behind the scenes that I see post complaints about.  But don't want to cause problems for people that I know and like there.[/quote]

Which people? McKnight was the only recent superintendent hired from within MCPS.[/quote]
